It's important that dental work is carried out in a way that is comfortable for the child. When the child is properly prepared and comes to the office having full support and encouragement from the parent, it's usually a positive outcome. Children often display a surprising amount of resiliency and courage, which helps the dental procedure sail smoothly along and also makes future visits to the dentist much easier.

The primary reason for having one’s teeth straightened is of course being able to smile confidently. People with crooked teeth are most of the times not confident about themselves and would rarely smile, laugh or have a photo taken . Notably, having a great set of teeth boosts self confidence and view of the world around.

A study conducted by the Kelton Research for Alignment Technology (2012) concluded that people with well aligned teeth are perceived as having more dates, being smarter and more successful by others. Notably, the survey was undertaken by 1,047 Americans who were asked to take a look at images of persons with a variety of tooth issues and give an opinion.

Results from the study show that people with straight teeth are perceived to have more attractive attributes than the ones with poorly aligned teeth in America. The attributes so considered are being professionally successful, surrounded by friends and family and, being happy.
